Planets
| Name | Type | Size | Status | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| microTech | Super-Earth | 10,328 km | Habitable | A terraforming error left the planet with an unnaturally dense cloud cover and a colder than average climate making it an ideal location for owner microTech to house its heat-sensitive computing and manufacturing centers. |
| Hurston | Super-Earth | 11,853 km | Habitable | A wealth of ore and other resources are mined on Hurston to manufacture the company’s line of munitions and weapons. Heavy industry has resulted in severe pollution across the planet. |
| ArcCorp | Super-Earth | 8,363 km | Habitable | Buildings cover a majority of the planet’s surface with residential areas relegated to the poles while ArcCorp’s factories, business headquarters, financial and commercial districts are located in between. |
| Crusader | Gas Giant | 74,500 km | Habitable | A low mass gas giant that features a breathable atmosphere at high altitudes. This was an ideal situation for ship manufacturer Crusader, who now occupies the planet’s floating platforms to build massive ships like the Starliner. |
Moons
| Name | Type | Size | Status | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cellin | Planetary Moon | 0.67 km | Named after the youngest of the three siblings featured in the 25th century children’s tale, “A Gift for Baba,” this moon features over a hundred currently dormant volcanoes that are said to represent Cellin’s simmering anger. | |
| Daymar | Planetary Moon | 0.4 km | Named after the middle brother of the three siblings featured in the 25th century children’s tale, “A Gift for Baba,” this is the largest of Crusader’s moons. Daymar’s slightly eccentric orbit is said to represent his ease at getting lost in the story. | |
| Yela | Planetary Moon | 0.7 km | Named after the oldest of the three siblings featured in the 25th century children’s tale, “A Gift for Baba,” this moon has a water-ice crust said to represent Yela’s cool and calculating mannerisms. | |
| Arial | Planetary Moon | 0.7 km | This moon was named after the 3rd CEO of Hurston Dynamics, Arial Hurston, who was known for creating the controversial Life/Labor-style employee contract. | |
| Aberdeen | Planetary Moon | 0.4 km | This moon was named after scientist Aberdeen Hurston who was credited with designing the company's first antimatter warhead. | |
| Magda | Planetary Moon | 0.2 km | This moon was named after Hurston Dynamics CEO Magda Stanton who made the decision to purchase Stanton I from the UEE. Magda is the mother of current CEO “Colonel” Gavin E. Stanton. | |
| Ita | Planetary Moon | 0.3 km | This moon was named after Ita Hurston, who died during the First Tevarin War, as a reminder of why “the products Hurston Dynamics makes are so important.” | |
| Lyria | Planetary Moon | 0.5 km | This icy moon features active cryogeysers and cryovolcanoes. | |
| Wala | Planetary Moon | 0.3 km | The low density of Wala is particularly susceptible to tidal forces which result in the moon being noticeably prolate. | |
| Calliope | Planetary Moon | 0.6 km | Named after the ancient Greek muse who inspires eloquence to supposedly remind those gazing upon the moon from microTech to 'strive for pure expression of thought.' | |
| Clio | Planetary Moon | 0.3 km | Named after the ancient Greek muse of history to supposedly remind those gazing upon the moon from microTech to remember that 'their work stands on those who came before them.' | |
| Euterpe | Planetary Moon | 0.5 km | Named after the ancient Greek muse of music to supposedly remind those gazing upon the moon from microTech to be 'guided by the natural rhythm of the universe in their designs.' |
